Poor Votan, I'm interested what his dependencies are (food, water). btw, he is a he not an it, better show some respect (just kidding in case you do not speak ironic)
Welcome buerzn, yes I'm fine thanks for asking.
I'd be even feel better if you'd had read the point c), which I'm mentioning further down in this answer, before posting your addon related question.
Here is a general "how to check my my addon does not work" description:
a) Read the addon description and check if there are any errors resolved, dependencies named: Install them to live/AddOns as if they were any normal addon

b) Read the addon comments, maybe others got similar issues and resolved them:

Read this about dependencies if you are interested in how they work and what youc an do to fix problems (should not be the case for Votans addons as they are up2date):

c) Read this as it describes the same as the others and me did now again and again and again

d) Check ingame if the addon shows in the addon manager's list at character selection, and ingame after loading a toon. Check the versions shown there, and checkif all dependencies are there and can be enabled and if the addon can be enabled.
Reload the UI then with the dependencies and the addon enabled.
Check the settings menu of the addons if the addon shows up.
If this is fine: At least the addon was fond and loaded.
If not: You either installed the addon wrong, like you have extracted the zip files manually and created a subfolder /live/Addons/VotansFisherman_v12/VotansFisherman where the actual folder must be /live/Addons/VotansFisherman (only an example!)
Check the folders and the files in live/AddOns.
If pins at the map are missing open the map, check the "filters" at the map and check if they are enabled. Maybe they are there but just hidden.
Check the addon settings if you need to enable something, read the addon description for that too and the author's FAQ at the author's portal (if provided). You can find it at the addon's description page, top right (if enabled):
Attention: If it's not enabled you won't see the Portal, Bug and Features buttons there! The author prefers to use private messages, emails or the addon comments then.
But communication via the forum threads, especially related to a particular addon, is the last way to go please!
